I was at Wal-Mart the other day to purchase back-to-school supplies for my son and came across these cute pencil cases. I bought a a few at $.50 a piece and after a little brain storming I came up with this album idea. I used Su paper and the Bordering Blue ink pad to distress it a little.

I saw these pencil boxes today when I was at Wal-Mart but didn't buy any. Now, of course, I'm kicking myself for not. I'll have to go back tomorrow and pick some up. My Wal-Mart had them in many different colors.
Great project. Love your son's name.
Thanks for sharing!

I wanted to give a great big thank you to everyone for all your wonderful comments! Also, I found the pencil cases at my local Staples this weekend, in different colors.
